Eh...nice thought, but why couldn't they come up with the same thing then? I don't think that the Valloreans are going to be "cut off" from their divine aid any more than the forces of Darkness are!<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I like the thought though!Rain of Fire? Sure. The Valloreans use them also!<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />As for Shadow Dancers, yeah, I allow them. Vallorean cities are all fortified, and have various arsenals of enchantments. Shadows aren't going to get anywhere near them, sad to say.As has been mentioned, the Vallorean forces are armed to the teeth against undead and demons. They have been fighting against undead and demons for ten years now, straight, in a vast war. They know what time it is!<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> In the early phases of the war, when the forces of Darkness invaded Vallorea, their undead forces were terribly successful. Hundreds of thousands of people were slaughtered, or turned into undead and werewolves. The Valloreans took a while to build themselves up, as they worked to contain the invasion by gradually strangling its advance. Once that happened, the forces of Vallorea then went over to the offensive, and they were prepared. They have never let up since, as they have begun to harness the power of the empire in bringing doom to the forces of Darkness. However, at the point of attack here, they are at the fringe. Though difficult, a sharp reminder of where they are can be made! The aren't in Kansas anymore!<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I think that the creative use of spells, and the use of teleporting giants and raiders, as well as hordes of natural animals, can be very effective. It isn't as glamorous, true--but it obviates so much of the Vallorean power, and brings the fight down to an essential struggle between warriors using steel and teeth.Though outnumbered, that does seem to be an achievement that adds a psoitive dimension to the battle for the forces of darkness, now doesn't it?<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Semper Fidelis,SHARK</blockquote>
